I think your logic is faulty..this is why.

With this, you are using extraterrestrial as a noun. Hence:
n. An extraterrestrial being or life form.
God can not be of a place other than earth, because he has no specific location. If you say he is 'not of earth' then it implies that he is 'of elsewhere' But since he has no physical form, he can not be 'of' anywhere. Also, God is certainly not a life form:



life form

n : the characteristic bodily form of a mature organism

As to whether he is a 'being' - this undermines the concept of belief. A being is:

  1. Something, such as an object, an idea, or a symbol, that exists, is thought to exist, or is represented as existing.
So let's say I don't believe in God. I think he is an idea humans made up. Therefore he is still a being - an idea thought to exist.

The Bible may be the best UFO book written and the concepts of aliens do seem very foreign to us but that is no reason for name calling.

God created "the heavens" and then "the earth". Those that are of "the heavens" can't reside in us because they are of "the heavens". The definition that anything "not of this earth" still means what it means and the BIble provides the backup that "we the people" are not of "the heavens" and so that means its "them" and "us" and it will always be that way as it was in the beginning.

So if you don't believe in life outside of Earth you don't believe in God and angels because they aren't human if you haven't realized that until now............

I believe God is everywhere in the universe so i guess She's both terrestrial and ET to me.

I also believe life exist on other planets, out of all the billions upon billions of planets out there it seems unlikely life would only happen once, plus there might be non-carbon based life too which would increase the chances even more.

I also believe in non-corporeal entities, which i would class as life.

So this poll is to find out if you are a true believer.

I agree with Prima (otherwise she'll hit me):jiggy: in that your question is invalid; since God is not a person as such. Your use of the word 'alien :-belonging or relating to another person, place, or thing, is invalid for God as well, since he is omnipresent - there is no vocabulary to define 'God'.:)
